Back again .. this time to try THE Breakfast Burger which has lots of my favorite add-ons: fried egg and bacon. It was same expected taste of freshly made smash burger of loose meat. There was a bit too much of herb aioli. The arugula lettuce and Tomato made it a pretty big burger! I'd definitely have it again just without the arugula lettuce and aioli on the side.

The BLT has think flavorful bacon on thick bread and a zesty sauce. Tried 1/2 fries and the customer ketchup and it has a bit of a kick and the honey mustard is yummy. Food only available to order in the kitchen side versus the corner. But you can sit on either side!

Came here for lunch today. The KC current game was playing, the atmosphere was good, and we enjoyed our time. We played burble while we watched and ate. You order at the bar. I had the cheeseburger, the regular nor the crispy, very good, I wish they had chili cheese fries. You can bring in outside food. They have chargers. We will be back for sure.

What a great experience here! Can't say enough about what a gem this place is!! The only thing better than the food is the service! And the burger was outstanding!!!! Got the BBQ burger and was not disappointed. Bun was soft and fresh, burger patty was thick, probably a full inch (NOT a McDonald's paper patty) and actually had FLAVOR. Pretty much tasted like a lean and tender steak. The herb aioli was very 'herby' and added a fresh flavor and the bbq sauce was thick with a good kick of spice. Also ordered the flight of fries. We shared and there was still plenty left over after we filled up. We would've taken them back, but didn't want to carry them onto the airplane. Sauces were bold and tasty, in particular, the ranch and aioli were standouts for us. I don't know how many owners there are.. but we met two of them. Clearly, they know their burgers and beers, and definitely how to hire outstanding staff. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town!

I sat on the front sidewalk patio. A server gave us the information on how to order soon after we sat down. We opted to order from the QR code on the table. The beer came pretty quick. To eat I had The Big Cheese and the burger was really good. It was cooked to my preference. The fries were the best I've had from a restaurant in a while. I loved the herbed aioli with the fries.

A friend organized a group of us to meet at "Brewer's Kitchen" for brunch. This was my first and only visit, but I'm ambivalent about the place. There are positives: Travelling to this location allowed me to visit a part of town I that I had not visited before. There was plenty of street parking. The store was nicely decorated--a little retro, a little industrial. This establishment has a good selection of craft beers. The bar can also make crafted cocktails. Apparently, they support local businesses by offering regional brands of beer, wine and spirits. The food is prepared well, and it is better than "pub grub". And you'll see offerings not seen at other eateries of this type. So, what was it that I didn't like? I don't think it was because they were "short staff"; I think this is how they conduct business: We were asked to place and pay for our orders using an app on our mobile devices. I understand that doing things in this way helps the restaurant minimize staff (no waiters, just food runners). I also acknowledge that it eliminates the cost associated with handling cash. Independent eateries are under pressure to minimize input costs. I just feel the elimination of wait staff as a diminution of service. I was also uncomfortable entering my credit card information into the app and running the transaction through an unfamiliar network. But I didn't want to cause waves. While I cannot say that this restaurant has data leaks, I got a text 4-hours later informing me of suspicious credit card activity. I had to kill my card.

Really outstanding food - way above average bar and burger fare. Friendly service without being annoying. Spacious atmosphere.

We've been here several times since first reviewing and the quality and experience is every bit as amazing as our first visit! The space has since expanded with the addition of Brewer's Corner - a beer hall literally just steps away from the main restaurant! We've been for date nights and Restaurant Week and really you can't go wrong with anything here! The food is spectacular! Everything is fresh - not a single freezer on site. This also means that when something sells out, it sells out for the day. The cost is a little higher, but you're paying for high quality food that's cooked with care. The classic burgers are great -- The Big Cheese is an elevated classic, but the Blueberry Jam Stout burger is a unique and delicious combo! The fries are delicious - make sure to get all the dipping sauces (they come with the flight!) but the brussels are equally delicious. Honestly some of the best in the city. Service is always great! We've had the pleasure of meeting Chris, the owner, and he really takes pride in the food he serves, the people he works with, and the spaces he's created. A must add to your KC list!

Brewer's Kitchen has arguably the best burgers in Kansas City, and is a great small space with good ownership and a great small staff. To go along with some truly delicious food, they also have a great selection of beer, good cocktails and now a new large attached space where you can kick back and have a drink after work or watch a game with a bunch of friends.

Breakfast burger
Amy S.

The breakfast burger was hands down one of the best I've had in years. The herb aioli was perfection. The fry flight was top tier and enough for 4 people. Oh and my 6 year old said his grilled cheese was fire and the best grilled cheese that he's ever had. Even better than mine and I'm the best cook he knows.

Blueberry Stout Burger
Carly C.

Brewer's Kitchen has some of the best American style fare in the Gillham area. I had the delicious blueberry stout burger, I thought it was a bit pricey, as it doesn't come with any sides, but once I buy into it, I immediately agreed with the pricing. Quality ingredients that produce robust flavors cost a little extra. The very perfect burger was a unique and flavorful culinary creation! Combining the rich and full-flavored stout beer with the sweetness of blueberries and the savory elements of a burger is sure to make for an interesting and satisfying taste experience. Service was pretty good, though I feel like we would've had better service had set inside instead of the patio.

crunch burger and fries

The food is good but could use some seasoning or at least put salt and pepper on the tables. You pretty much serve yourself and no one comes to refill sodas or water. Nice atmosphere though.

This is a great small business to support. I've been here a couple of times now and have always been impressed. The Brussels sprouts are some of the best in the city, the fries come with a bunch of delicious dipping sauce options and the burgers are super inventive and incredibly delicious! It's an intimate establishment that I found out today employs only 7 people including the owner, so service can be a little slow if it's busy. But the space is fantastic so kick back and enjoy the amazing local beers and munch on the incomparable Borracho Nachos! Bottom line, it's a small business that takes care of its people, serves amazing food with local ingredients, local beers and has a beautiful space. It's a gem that belongs in Kansas City.

In addition to food, they also have a few drink options like bottles of wine and beer. They even have dog food and dog treats. The store itself is decent sized. There's plenty of space for a few people to move around. They do have a large deli counter and a few coolers full of goodness. Service is always excellent. They are always helpful and can even offer suggestions if you don't know what to make with what. One of my go-tos are any one of their sausages. They have traditional ones plus a few fun ones. And if you watch their social media, they'll usually tell you when they have a limited addition one. The Rieger whiskey and apple sausage is one of my favorites. They also have a chicken curry sausage, which is excellent and has so much curry flavor. On my last visit I noticed that they have mac & cheese that you can take to go. They have a few different varieties, but I went with one with bacon because their bacon is always fantastic. It was a really good side. I slapped it on the grill to warm it up and it was delicious.

And I'm so excited because what goes better with a beer than a burger? My answer is pretty much nothing and thank goodness Burn Theory has got you covered. The special of the evening was a kimchi smash burger. One thing about me is I love anything fermented so, kimchi is one of my favorite things. Surprisingly I had never had it as a burger condiment before so, I was ready to try something fresh and new. It didn't disappoint! It was delicious. The smash burger patty was juicy and had lacey edges just like a proper smasher should, sometimes certain places forget the importance of those crispy edges. Not here! The kimchi wasn't an afterthought at all, it was more than a condiment slapped on top of the burger instead it was piled high and added just the right amount of zippy slightly spicy flavor. The cheese oozed out of the burger and melded with the lacey edges to create an impeccable bite, I'm still thinking of it a week later. I can't wait to try more burger renditions on the menu because this one definitely got high marks. There are other things on the menu as well if a burger isn't your speed but don't expect anything too fancy this is bussin' bar food that pairs exceptionally with a brew.
